Life
Pre-1930
Dimensionist manifesto
In 1936 in Paris, Charles Tamkó Sirató published his Manifeste Dimensioniste,[1] which described how <templatestyles src="Template:Blockquote/styles.css" />
the Dimensionist tendency has led to:
- Literature leaving the line and entering the plane.
- Painting leaving the plane and entering space.
- Sculpture stepping out of closed, immobile forms.
- …The artistic conquest of four-dimensional space, which to date has been completely art-free.
The manifesto was signed by many prominent modern artists worldwide. Hans Arp, Francis Picabia, Kandinsky, Robert Delaunay and Marcel Duchamp amongst others added their names in Paris, then a short while later it was endorsed by artists abroad including László Moholy-Nagy, Joan Miró, David Kakabadze, Alexander Calder, and Ben Nicholson.[1]
